“I was excited about playing in a big city and also about getting to live in Manhattan. Nothing can beat the pace of this city! I live on the Upper West Side, but I find myself spending a lot time downtown. Some of my favorite spots are La Esquina (best tacos in the city), LAVO and The Eldridge, which is always a good scene.

Last week I had a friend in town and had the chance to check out my first Broadway show, ‘Jersey Boys.’ Great show; I definitely recommend seeing it.”

I'm a recent college graduate looking for a dream job covering hockey. I've been watching the New York Rangers since my grade school days of VHS and Gordon Bombay's "ducks fly together" speech. While studying journalism at Boston University (COM '10), I wrote for the Daily Free Press, the student newspaper. I worked two summers at the Staten Island Advance, my hometown newspaper, writing city news and features. I've also written CD reviews for Music-Reviewer.com. One of my favorite gigs was interning for hockey analyst extraordinaire Stan Fischler covering the Boston Bruins and attending all their home games in the 2009-2010 season. (Yes, including the crushing defeat against the Flyers in the Eastern Conference playoffs.)

So, we are now missing Prospal, Drury, Gaborik, Anisimov and possibly Rozsival… Gotta like this team! LOL… Rozi wouldn’t be hard to replace, depending on the extent of his injury, with either Valentenko or McDonagh available for callup, but We’re really starting to get to the crunch on forwards! Grachev is the only guy worthy of calling up right now, other than possibly Byers, but I think we need pure offensive forwards at this stage with all the scoring out of the lineup.
